  • Title: Platelet MAO activity: relationships to clinical and psychometric variables.
    Author: Adler SA, Gottesman II, Orsulak PJ, Kizuka PP, Schildkraut JJ.
    Journal: Schizophr Bull; 1980; 6(2):226-31. PubMed ID: 7375854.
    Abstract:
    Platelet monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity was measured in a group of hospitalized male psychiatric patients. The findings of this study confirm previous reports of: (1) reduced platelet MAO activity in patients with auditory hallucinations, (2) reduced platelet MAO activity in patients with alcoholism, and (3) a positive correlation between platelet MAO activity and a psychometric index of social introversion.
